About This Home
As of July 2020Touting storybook good looks and a perfect Western Section location just one block from Palmer Square, this impeccably kept Cotswald Tudor seems too good to be true. Yet, it only gets better as you step through the wisteria-draped entrance to discover out-of-the-ordinary original details and expertly designed extras, like custom built-ins to immediately corral bags and coats. Rooms to either side, one cozy and one bright, have working fireplaces. However, it s the skylit Great Room that steals the show with exposed stone walls and views of the terrace beside a glorious magnolia tree, part of an exceedingly private garden designed by Ronni Hock. Just off the cheerful kitchen equipped with new Viking and Bosch appliances is a secondary patio, which also serves a studio atop the 3-car garage. Perfect for guests or a live-in nanny, this sunny space has a private entrance and a newly remodeled full bath. Be sure to give the antique French belfry a test ring atop the stairs. The bedrooms in the main house range from darling to deluxe with hidden laundry, his and hers cedar closets, and a marble bathroom with radiant heat inside the private and airy master suite. The .37 acre property even has a vegetable garden for a perfect town and country lifestyle. View at video tour at: https://www.wellcomemat.com/mls/k1mcba91b3f142hb
